摘要: Various embodiments of the teachings herein include methods for operating a vehicle. The methods may include: accessing a travel plan identifying an intended destination and a predicted state of the energy store including a predicted value for a parameter of the energy store upon arrival; determining an instantaneous location; determining a predicted value for the first operating parameter based on the location and the travel plan; measuring an instantaneous value for the parameter; calculating a first deviation between the predicted value and the instantaneous value; calculating an expected final value for the parameter upon reaching the intended destination based on the instantaneous value; calculating a second deviation between the predicted final value and the expected final value; indicating to an operator both of the deviations; and executing one or more changes to controls of the drive system in response to at least one of the two deviations.

摘要: A battery management system and method for performing a battery health parameter observation, in particular, cell impedance observation, with two redundant, independent and dissimilar lanes. Specifically, a cell impedance observation in a first one of the lanes is based on Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, EIS. The other lane employs a different algorithm than EIS. In embodiments, a battery state observation is further performed independently by the two lanes, wherein again the first lane employs EIS and the other lane a different (dissimilar) algorithm. On the basis of state and health observation, state (state of function) of the battery system can be predicted to determine a range of flight in accordance with a predetermined flight profile.
